At the end of last year, MINI had this print ad where you could see the new MINI Cabrio in 3D on top of that ad. BMW now released a more interactive augmented reality tool for its current “An Expression of Joy” campaign for the Z4. In the normal TV ad, the artist Robin Rhode uses the BMW Z4 as a paintbrush. With this augmented reality software you can now create your own virtual version on your desk. When you’re happy with the result you can submit your piece to a gallery on Facebook.
Unfortunately the MINI and BMW tools are Windows only, so I can’t try them out myself. But you can download the BMW software here. I guess I’ll have to believe that everything works as smooth as advertised in those demo videos.
